Which ones do you find yourself doing? 😣▫️And so @sociallystrong, what should I do?!The answer is simple; but hard to do. You need to calm yourself down to a state where you are no longer anxious. That's it. That's your ONLY task. Don't analyse, don't fight, don't get upset, don't overthink, don't get anger. ALL of these things will feed the anxiety monster. Just calm yourself down. Worry about the why's and the who's later.▫️You can calm yourself down in three ways.1. Getting out of your head. Use grounding techniques to get into the present moment and out of your head. Example: Look around. Find 5 things you can see, 4 things you can touch, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell and 1 things you can taste. 2. Get moving. Anything you can do to burn through that excess adrenaline. Example: Exercise, dance, shadow box, run, hop.3. Slowing down. Slow right down to show your brain it is in a relaxed state with no need for the adrenaline. Example: Use slow deep breaths, loosen the shoulders and calming self talk.Or do combinations. Hold your breath for 30 seconds is a combination of 1&3. Turn around in circles 10 times and then the other way 10 times as quickly as you can is a combination of 1&2.▫️I hope this helps and if you have any useful tips feel free to comment below 👇🏼💪🏼

Amen!!! How many of you actually pay attention to the #attitude you have when you wake up in the morning, when you are driving to work, when you arrive to work, when you see a person with whom you have difficulty, when you enter a new situation??? As they say, attitude is everything… And that is the #truth ! Become #aware – what do you immediately think when faced with something challenging and what is the resulting #emotion? Furthermore, how do you respond to the attitude you have formed? Are you short with people? Do you lash out? Do you #avoid and #isolate yourself? Are you #passiveaggressive? Do you #blame others for your #badmood and take your #anger out on them? Being #mindful, being #aware, is a tremendous #power you have if you learn how to wield it!

#misfit#despair#sadness#songs#lust#love#blame#poet#poems#poetrycommunity#writersofig#wanderings If only people would have talked instead they hid in selfish thoughts. And now this heart bleeds again to save some pain and make it go away. I'd turn back time and broke the silence Loved two people at the same time. That is my verse to this last goodbye. This heart still loves those souls. She'd give up anything just to see them again. She fell in love with and that never faded over time.
